TechEd NZ 2014: Intelligent Systems Service - Concept, Code and DemoIntergen
TechEd New Zealand 2014 - WIN311 - Jonny Lin
'Internet of Things' is the next big thing, by 2020 there is expected to be billions devices connected to the internet, evolving IoT into a trillion dollar industry. Recognizing the upcoming opportunity and challenges IoT will bring, Microsoft released the Intelligent Systems Service (ISS), a service built on top of Azure designed to help developers connect, manage and capture data from IoT devices. This sessions aims to give a high level overview of ISS, walk through a sample project encompassing all the moving parts, dive into the code of a demo application sending data and alarms up into ISS, then create a web portal to call actions and do firmware updates on the device.

Splunk conf2014 - Dashboard Fun - Creating an Interactive Transaction ProfilerSplunk
Using Simple XML and Splunk Enterprise, learn how to create easy interactive dashboards to explore data. This demo showcases great tools to put ion the hands of Splunk users, help desk users and IT Operations staff.
If you’re just getting started with Splunk, this session will help you understand how to use Splunk software to turn your silos of data into insights that are actionable. In this session, we’ll dive right into a Splunk environment and show you how to use the simple Splunk search interface to quickly find the needle-in-the-haystack or multiple needles in multiple haystacks. We’ll demonstrate how to perform rapid ad-hoc searches to conduct routine investigations across your entire IT infrastructure in one place, whether physical, virtual or in the cloud. We’ll show you how to then convert these searches into real time alerts and dashboards, so you can proactively monitor for problems before they impact your end user. We’ll demonstrate how you can use Splunk to connect the dots across heterogeneous systems in your environment for cross-tier, cross-silo visibility. You’ll have access to a demo environment. So, don’t forget to bring your laptop and follow along for a hands-on experience.
Building a Security Information and Event Management platform at Travis Per...Splunk
Faced with a complex, heterogeneous IT infrastructure and a ‘Cloud First’ instruction from the board, Nick Bleech, Head of Information Security at building supplies giant Travis Perkins, used Splunk Enterprise Security running on Splunk Cloud to deliver enhanced security for 27,000 employees.
Splunk allowed Travis Perkins to provide real-time security monitoring, faster incident resolution and improved data governance while delivering demonstrable business value to the board.
In this webinar, Nick Bleech discusses:
● The business and security drivers of deploying a cloud-based security incident and event management solution
● The overall benefits of the Splunk solution
● The project’s critical success factors
● How stakeholders and the overall project were managed
● The positive impact on the deployment on the IT operations and IT security teams
● The next steps in the development of a lightweight security operations centre

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Splunk (the product) captures, indexes and correlates real-time data
in a searchable repository from which it can generate graphs,
reports, alerts, dashboards and visualizations
Splunk aims to make machine data accessible across an organization
and identifies data patterns, provides metrics, diagnoses problems
and provides intelligence for business operation.
Splunk is a used for application management, security and
compliance, as well as business and web analytics.
Splunk has over 5,200 licensed customers in 74 countries, including

8. Getting Data Into Splunk
Agent and Agent-less Approach for Flexibility
9. How Splunk Stores Data
Splunk is ingesting data and storing it in two types of files
o Raw Data
o Index File
Splunk indexes are stored in directories called Buckets
o This consists of the index file and the raw data
o Buckets move through stages as they age

file or directory. Sample inputs.conf configuration:
Monitor a File:
[monitor:/var/log/cassandra/system.log]
sourcetype = log4j
disabled = false
Monitor a Directory files:
[monitor:/var/log/]
disabled = false

parenthesis. (error OR failed)
• Historical, custom, or real-time
16. Search Commands
Search results are “piped” to the
command:
• Manipulating fields
• Formatting
• Handling results
• Reporting
20. Reporting
